Cherilyn Sarkisian Lapiere Bono Allman. Or simply, Cher.

Daily Dirt for Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2024

And then there’s Megan Thee Stallion and Marilyn Manson … Welcome to today’s three thoughts that make up Vol. 1,106 of The Daily Dirt.

1. Not too long ago, The Daily Dirt divulged the late Kirk Douglas was actually born Issur Danielovitch Demsky, the son of Russian Jewish immigrants.

That revelation concerning Douglas was just one of several “real names” of well-known celebrities we shared, prompting a number of readers to submit additional entries. So we say thank you to those who responded and as a result we’ve added the following monikers to our ever-growing list:

  • Cher: Cherilyn Sarkisian Lapiere Bono Allman.
  • Lisa Bonet: Lilakoi Moon.
  • Miley Cyrus: Destiny Hope Cyrus.
  • Elton John: Reginald Kenneth Dwight.
  • Jessica Biel: Jessica Timberlake.
  • Joaquin Phoenix: Joaquin Rafael Bottom.
  • Demi Moore: Demetria Guynes.
  • John Legend: John Roger Stephens.
  • Drake: Aubrey Graham.
  • Meg Ryan: Margaret Mary Emily Anne Hyra.
  • Lizzo: Melissa Jefferson.
  • Helen Mirren: Ilyena Mironov.
  • Faith Hill: Audrey Perry
  • Megan Thee Stallion: Megan Jovon Ruth Pete. (Well, I didn’t really think her real last name was Stallion, or that her middle name was Thee.)
  • Marilyn Manson: Brian Warner.

2. Did you know (Part 178)

  • That Lay’s is bringing back the following chip flavors for a limited time: Chicken and Waffles, Cheesy Garlic Bread, Southern Biscuits and Gravy, Wavy Fried Green Tomato and Crispy Taco. By the time you are reading this, some or all may already be on supermarket shelves.
  • That “Chocolate Loaded Strawberry” cereal from General Mills is on the way. The chocolate will be in the middle. This could, potentially, be too good to be true. This cereal should be in stores prior to Thanksgiving.
  • That General Mills is also releasing “S’mores Loaded” cereal. The chocolate cream will be in the middle with a graham cracker/marshmallow taste on the outside. It’s supposed to be in stores by December, so start checking in a week or two.
  • That Cheerios has a new entry with Chocolate Oat Crunch.
  • That “Friends (as in the old TV show) Vanilla Bean Latte” cereal is coming soon in honor of the classic TV program’s 30th anniversary. This Generac Mills cereal, however, will be exclusive to Walmart.

3. The best of “Found on Facebook” over the past seven days:

  • “On a positive note, you are now too old to have a midlife crisis.”
  • “Hello darkness, my old friend. I’ll start to see you at 5 p.m.”
  • “I ate a frozen apple. Hard core.”
  • “Mary had a little lamb. And the doctor nearly fainted.”
  • “We’ll be turning clocks back soon. An extra hour of 2024 is like a bonus track on a Yoko Ono album.”
